re: Laughing as part of audio on TV shows (laugh tracks, studio audiences)

quote:

I was watching The Colbert Report, which has a live audience, last night, and there was one woman with a very distinct, and very annoying, laugh. It was distracting and really got under my skin for some reason

This can be annoying, but sometimes I get a good laugh out of listening to how ridiculous some people laughs are, or how late they laugh after the joke.

Colbert tells a joke
Crowd laughs
As laughter is dying down you hear a loud "Hyuck hyuck hyuck"

cracks me up everytime, I imagine a big guy in overalls and some straw in his teeth.
